I’m sorry, but the answer is no. When you marry your boyfriend, you must accept his son as he is. Please think twice; that’s my advice. Love is love; marriage is marriage.
i dissagree. if you are important to your boyfriend, he should listen to your suggestions, about how to dicipline his son or otherwise. Whether or not he agrees and acts on your ideas is up to him. However, how his son treats you is your business and you dont have to put up with the selfishness of a spoiled child. Should the boy do anything that offends you or disobey you, remember youare the adult and he will eventuall need to learn respect. dont be afraid to tell him no just because your boyfriend might not like it. you deseerve respect and he will need to give it to you and other adults alike if he wants to make it in life. your boyfriend is only hurting his son by letting him think that he can get around the word no.
It sounds to me like the sons mother is a problem as well. She should also have a part in disciplining this child. Your husband should understand that when you get married you will be his sons stepmom, and should have a say in things.
